The Rapido MR 'Evolution' Non-Corridor Carriage Pack is a range of OO gauge model railway carriages designed to replicate the non-corridor 48' bogie coaches of the Midland Railway. The pack includes three coaches: Brake Third No.681, Third No.2441 and Composite No.3207.

The coaches feature a range of tooling and detail features, including clerestory roofs, gas lighting, footboards on all bogies and lower underframe mounted footboards. The Fox pattern bogies and full internal and external detail add to the authenticity of the models.

The interior of the coaches is equipped with working lighting, allowing for a realistic representation of the carriages in use. The NEM coupling pockets and kinematic coupling mechanism enable smooth coupling and uncoupling of the carriages. Additionally, an optional 'vacuum pipe' close coupling bar is provided for those who wish to use it.
